"Frasier" Emmy Winner Speeches - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Moondance · 09-20-2004, 06:10 PM

For those of you slackers who missed the Emmy show....

David Hyde Pierce: It's not the way I would have gone, but, ok. Congratulations to Sean and Brad and Peter and the ferociously talented Jeffrey. (after a series of "uh's") Thank you to everyone at Frasier. Eleven years I was lucky enough to be a part of that group and in sitcom school they tell you how great it is to have a long-running show, but they don't tell you how hard it is to say goodbye. And to everyone - all the writers, all the crew, everyone - I miss you. I love you. They say that television and comedy in television is changing, and I just want to say when it changes back, call me.

Kelsey Grammer: Wow. I'd like to take a minute to pay my respects to John Ritter and his family. He was a terrific guy and his death was a shock to all of us. And he'll be missed - not only just for his kindness but for his work. I'm blown away by this - I want to say everything Sarah Jessica Parker said - especially to a passerby. And - no one else could have gotten away with that. Anyway, I have the most extraordinary life, I had the most extraordinary life on television. Frasier was a gift in my life and the people I got to meet and work with were the greatest gift and this is just the cherry on top. I love my wife, Camille - I love my new children - my latest gift in my life and - Gosh, this is a great way to end a series. Thank you very much. Bye.

As much as I love David Hyde Pierce, and as much as I prefer Frasier over Arrested Development (although I love that too).... I thought Jeffrey Tambor would win it. And as you can probably guess, so did David.

Oh, David's face said it all. And I know when Kelsey won, he looked over at his wife and said something. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what he said.
